Suryakumar Govindjee vs Krishnammal And Ors on 26 April, 1990
The learned counsel for the appellant has placed reliance on a decision of
this Court in Suryakumar Govindjee v. Krishnammal and Ors., [1990] 4 SCC
343, wherein part materia definition of 'building' contained in clause (ii)
of Section 2 of Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1960,
came up for the consideration of this Court wherein the structure was
described as 'kaichalai', a tamil word denoting a structure or a roof put
up by hand. This Court held that whatever may be the precise meaning of the
term 'kaichalai', it was clearly included in the definition of building.
The expression 'hut' cannot be restricted only to huts or cottages intended
to be lived in. It will also take any shed, hut or other crude or third
class construction consisting of an enclosure made of mud or by poles
supporting a tin or asbestos roof that can be put to use for any purpose -
residential or non-residential, in the same manner as any other first class
construction.

Ashok Kapil vs Sana Ullah [Dead] And Others on 25 September, 1996
Certain observations made by this Court in Ashok Kapil v.
Sana Ullah (dead) and Ors., [1996] 6 SCC 342, are also apposite, wherein
the term 'building' as defined in U.P. Urban Buildings (Regulation of
Letting, Rent and Eviction Act, 1972 came up for the consideration of this
Court. The definition is not similarly worded. However, during the course
of its order, this Court quoted with approval Stroud's Judicial Dictionary
(Vol. 1, 5th Edn.) stating that 'what is a building must always be a
question of degree and circumstances'.
